Using the iPhone's Built-In Plant Identifier: A Guide
If you have an iPhone running on iOS 15 or later, it comes with a built-in plant identifier feature called "Live Text." Here are the steps to use it:
- Open the camera app on your iPhone and point it at the plant you want to identify.
- If the plant is within range, you will see a yellow box around it.
- Tap on the yellow box, and a Live Text icon will appear in the bottom right corner of the screen.
- Tap on the Live Text icon, and your iPhone will scan the plant.
- If the plant is recognized, you will see a card with its name, photos, and information about its care and cultivation. If the plant is not recognized, you may be prompted to submit a photo for identification.
It's important to note that the plant identification feature is powered by machine learning algorithms, and it may not always be accurate. If you're unsure about the identification, it's always a good idea to consult a professional or use additional resources to verify the plant's identity.
